After migration, the permissions the guest device wants to impose on its
BlockBackend are stored in blk->perm and blk->shared_perm. In
blk_root_activate(), we take our permissions, but keep all shared
permissions open by calling `blk_set_perm(blk->perm, BLK_PERM_ALL)`.
Only afterwards (immediately or later, depending on the runstate) do we
restrict the shared permissions by calling
`blk_set_perm(blk->perm, blk->shared_perm)`. Unfortunately, our first
call with shared_perm=BLK_PERM_ALL has overwritten blk->shared_perm to
be BLK_PERM_ALL, so this is a no-op and the set of shared permissions is
not restricted.
Fix this bug by saving the set of shared permissions before invoking
blk_set_perm() with BLK_PERM_ALL and restoring it afterwards.
